AutoExec Summary
Controversial road rules in New South Wales have been amended, allowing motorists to slow to a "reasonable" speed when passing emergency vehicles, rather than the previously mandated 40km/h. This change, which applies to vehicles on roads with a speed limit of 90km/h or more, aims to enhance safety while addressing concerns about the abrupt slowdown from high speeds. The rule still requires a 40km/h limit on lower-speed roads, with penalties for non-compliance.
